Had a real laugh. He certainly can hold his own with any of them
Those EU MEP's were mouthing off and he gave them a taste of their own medicine. I loved the "your not laughing now" quip, also the way he told them if they were cutting their nose off to spite their face, they would be hurt more than the UK.

It's getting quite nasty but will settle down as the serious negotiations start IMO...

I guess I'm the only one who thought it/he was an embarrassment.
As an elected MEP he is supposed to represent his nation and constituents in a professional manner.
Instead he acted like an immature child.

Enjoy the latter, but don't bother with the former; a very poor imitation of the classic films.

Only if you take him seriously Simon. He's been acting like that in Brussels for 17 years. He did take quite a bit of stick in the opposite direction but I guess everyone knows it won't be Nigel negotiating.
